此謂五行生尅變化分布之用也。又謂之五行砲拳。先哲云。為金形。止於劈。為木形。止於崩。為水形。止於躦。為火形。止於砲為土形。止於横。五行各用其所當。於是乃有明德之至善之謂也。故名五行拳生尅變化之道也。Changes in what we called the distribution of five grams of health also. Cannon also said that the five elements of boxing. Sage clouds. Gold shape. Split ends. Wooden shape. Beyond the collapse. Water shape. Beyond education was. For the fire-shaped. Beyond the gun to Hijikata. Beyond the horizontal. Use it when all five elements. So there is Matilda of perfection that also. Hence the name change of grams of the five elements boxing students also. 第一節 五行生剋拳
Section 1 予備甲乙二人。合演對舞。起點時。二人分上下手。均站三體式。甲上手。乙下手。乙先進步打崩拳。甲上手用左手扣乙的右拳。甲兩足後代後著。與手同時撤步。右手仍在右脇。
Two people, Person A and Person B, prepare for tandem exercise. To begin, both people stand in the three-substance posture. Their roles are divided into “upper” and “lower”, A [on the right in the drawings] being upper and B [on the left] being lower.
B, initiate by advancing and attacking with the crashing technique.
A, cover B’s right fist with your left hand, retreating at the same time with both feet, your front foot taking the place of your rear foot and your rear foot going back to again be at the same distance from your front foot, your right fist staying at your right ribs.
第二節 五行生尅拳
Section 2
乙再打左手。仍是崩拳。甲再將左足尖。向外斜横著墊步。左手起躦仍與劈拳相同。躦至在乙的左手外邊。手心向裏停住。右手急速從右脇。向着自己的左手出去。再向着乙的頭肩劈下去。右足亦與右手。同時進至乙的左足外後邊落下。劈拳破崩拳(金剋木)。
B, again attack, performing the crashing technique with your left fist.
A, your left foot takes a small sideways step, toes slanted outward, your left fist drilling as in the chopping technique, drilling to the outside of B’s left fist, until the center of your fist is facing inward. Your right hand quickly goes from your right ribs toward your own left hand and chops down toward B’s head or shoulder area, your right foot at the same time advancing and coming down to the outside and to the rear of B’s left foot. This is the chopping technique defeating the crashing technique, or metal overcoming wood.
第三節 五行生尅拳
Section 3
乙再將左拳往上躦翻是手腕向外翻也右手向甲的心口打出去。兩足不動。是謂砲拳。所以崩拳屬木。砲拳似砲屬火。木能生火。崩拳能變砲拳。砲拳屬火。砲拳破劈拳(火尅金)。
B, your left fist drills upward and turns over (the wrist turning outward) as your right fist strikes out to A’s solar plexus, your feet staying where they are. This is the blasting technique. Crashing corresponds to wood. Blasting corresponds to fire. Wood can give rise to fire, therefore crashing can transform into blasting. Also, since fire overcomes metal, blasting can defeat crashing.
第四節 五行生尅拳
Section 4
甲再將右足提起抽回。向左邊足尖向外斜横著墊步。左拳往下落向裏裹勁。肘靠脇壓住乙的右手。即速將自己的右手抽回右脇。再將左足向前進步。至乙的右足裏邊。右拳手心向上。順著自己身子。肘靠着脇。與左足同時向著乙的左手裏邊下頦躦去。兩眼看乙的眼。俟其變動。此謂躦拳能破砲拳。劈拳屬金。躦拳屬水。是金生水。劈拳能變躦拳。躦拳破砲拳(水尅火)。
A, your right foot lifts and withdraws a small sideways step to be beside your left foot, toes slanted outward, as your left hand drops inward with an energy of wrapping to press down B’s right fist, the elbow close to your ribs, and your right fist quickly withdraws to your right ribs. Then your left foot advances to the inside of B’s right foot as your right fist moves along your own body, the center of the fist facing upward, elbow close to your ribs, and drills out to the inside of B’s left arm toward his chin. Your gaze is toward B’s eyes. Wait there for him to adapt. This is the drilling technique defeating the blasting technique. Chopping corresponds to metal. Drilling corresponds to water. Metal gives rise to water, therefore chopping can transform into drilling. Water overcomes fire, therefore drilling can defeat blasting.
第五節 五行生尅拳
Section 5
乙再將右拳抽回右脇。左手與右手同時斜著勁。向著甲的右肘上胳膊推去。謂之取甲的斜勁。兩足不動是謂横拳能破躦拳。砲屬火。横屬土。火生土。是砲拳能變横拳。横拳破躦拳(土尅水)。
B, withdraw your right fist to your right ribs, your left hand at the same time going out diagonally to push on A’s elbow, thereby snatching control over A’s diagonal power, your feet staying where they are. This is the crossing technique defeating the drilling technique. Blasting corresponds to fire. Crossing corresponds to earth. Fire gives rise to earth, therefore blasting can transform into crossing. Earth can overcome water, therefore crossing can defeat drilling.
第六節 五行生尅拳
Section 6
甲再將右手抽。回左手對乙的心口如箭直打。去兩足不動。是謂躦拳屬水。崩拳屬木。水生木。是躦拳能變崩拳。崩拳破横拳(木尅土)。
A, withdraw your right fist as your left fist strikes straight forward to B’s solar plexus like an arrow, your feet staying where they are. This is the crashing technique. Drilling corresponds to water. Crashing corresponds to wood. Water gives rise to wood, therefore drilling can transform into crashing. Wood overcomes earth, therefore crashing can defeat crossing.
第七節 五行生尅拳
Section 7
乙即將右手。扣甲的左拳。乙再將左手左足。撤回至右足後邊。如劈拳形式。
B, cover A’s left fist with your right hand, withdrawing your left fist and stepping your left foot behind your right foot, the posture the same as in the chopping technique.
第八節 五行生尅拳
Section 8
甲再打右手崩拳。
A, strike again, performing the blasting technique with your right fist.
第九節 五行生尅拳
Section 9
乙再將左手。扣甲的右拳。乙的右拳右足。如前式撤回。
B, now cover A’s right fist with your left hand, withdrawing your right fist and right foot as before.
第十節 五行生尅拳
Section 10
甲再打左手崩拳。
A, strike again, performing the blasting technique with your left fist.
第十一節 五行生尅拳
Section 11
乙即將左手。如單打劈拳式。從小腹處躦出在甲的左手外邊。手心朝上。再出右手進右足。劈法進法。各項的勁。與甲第一式相同。此式亦劈拳破崩拳。謂之(金尅木)。
B, your left fist performs as in the solo practice of the chopping technique, drilling out from your belly to the outside of A’s left fist, the center of your fist facing upward. Then your right hand and right foot advance, performing the chopping technique in every way the same as in A’s first posture [Section 2]. This is chopping defeating crashing, or metal overcoming wood.
第十二節 五行生尅拳
Section 12
再演甲為乙的前式。
A now takes B’s role…
第十三節 五行生尅拳
Section 13
乙為甲的前式。來往循環。直如一氣之伸縮往來之理。若得此拳之意味。真有妙不可言處。先哲云太極之真。二五之精。亦是此拳之意。義也。
And B now takes A’s role. With the roles reversing back and forth, the set may recycle indefinitely, maintaining the principle of extending and withdrawing continuously. Once you grasp the meaning of this set, you will then indeed possess indescribable marvels. An ancient sage said [Zhou Dunyi, “Explanation to the Taiji Diagram”]: “The truth of the grand polarity [nonpolarity] [is subtly merged] with the essence of the dual aspects and the five elements.” This is also the idea in this set.
